New month, same goals

So it’s a new month & for some of you eager beavers almost Christmas 😑 I will be indulging on that one day but until then I’m training hard because even though some people start the festive activities early with alcohol & food I shall still be continuing to towards my fitness goals.

This month I am giving the Nike training app a go, a fitness plan for the week designed for me, very excited to try this, love trying new things so I shall be sharing the workouts this week & hopefully getting to my goal size which I was a few years ago, 2 down from a size 16, 1 more to go, then it’s continuing to live a fit & healthy lifestyle whilst continuing to have my fun cheat days because it’s all about balance. I’ve come so far and one thing I am proud of the most is the fact that I haven’t quit, I lost count on how many times I quit and had to start over again, there’s nothing worse, it always feels worse starting over, I mean don’t get me wrong I’ve had off days but it’s always only ever been for 3 days max so I am proud, one more size to drop down to and then it’s just maintaining in. I’m so excited, working towards goals and seeing your progess so far is the best feeling ever.

So stay motivated and don’t let Christmas ruin your hard work, Christmas is the 25th of December so the time before that is still the time for you kick ass, why wait until the new year to start something new

Early morning power workout. Star jumps, jogging on the spot, burpees, I was literally half zombie when I woke up this morning but it defo woke me up & I’m now ready to start my day. Only did this for 20 minutes, sometimes that’s all you need to make a difference.

Back to basics on my suspence trainer.–Not really been using this too much in my workouts but it’s actually a really good equipment so I will be trying to get in into my workouts even if it’s just for 10 minutes a day.

Mini workout after a morning run because why not?

Another few moves taken from “Beachbody On Demand” online fitness program “21 day Fix” – Upper body 🤷‍♀️💪🏋️‍♀️☝🏽

Don’t exercise to add life to your days, exercise to add days to your life! 🙏

So I’ve never been a fan of situps, in fact out of all the exercises I do it’s my least favourite, that & press ups 😫
–
This machine is my God send, so straight forward, easier & works the stomach just the same 😏
–
Sometimes I do situps the harder way with my hands behind my head pushing myself to the point my stomach hurts then other times I just use this, I call it my cheat machine 😋
–
If defo helps when you’ve never done sit ups before & just starting out or your having a lazy day but still want to exercise with ease, this is me today, yh it’s only Tuesday but I think the morning run took it out of me 🙄

Anyway i initally started with 30 a day now at 50 with & without this little tool, but I love it because it give a you that extra push 💪

Working those arms with a variety of moves with my weights 💪💪💪–Before I even had weights I used to use tins of beans & any other tins I could find in the cuboards, it’s still heavy & works the same 🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️–The weights I use now are from good old eBay 😏
